My roms usually have registry editors built in.
If you read through my thread it will tell you everything you need to know.
Also most have shortcut menus built in.
The thread will tell you everything you need to know.
Start at the last page and go forward.
NinjaRom has an app shortcut menu for sure.

If you go to my roms thread and scroll down the first post.
You will see an attachment called Max Manila 2.5 v3.
Download and install that.
It will add many extra features like app shortcuts and extra clocks.
